Hi,
I'm happy to announce the relesae of git-buildpackage 0.9.3:

    https://git.sigxcpu.org/cgit/git-buildpackage/tag/?id=debian/0.9.3

Here's a list of changes:

git-buildpackage (0.9.3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * [9a2c5e6] import_orig: drop debian/ again in --merge-mode=replace.
    Another fallout of the Python3 conversion.
    Thanks to Víctor Cuadrado Juan for providing a nice reproducer
    (Closes: #881750)
  * [876ebb3] git-pbuilder: handle --help (Closes: #734862)
  * [ff03bec] GitRepository: require an exact ref path when looking for
    branches. Otherwise we might match on
       refs/heads/refs/heads/foo instead of refs/heads/foo
    when looking for  branch named 'foo' (Closes: #813298)
  * [3b5a7dd] changelog: handle comma in maintainers name.
    Thanks to Andreas Beckmann for the proposed fix (Closes: #737623)
  * [e74b40a] rpm: conditionally check for librpm flags.  Not all of them are
    in newer librpm and this way we can add new ones as needed as well.
    This unbreaks the tests with new python3-rpm in sid.
  * [c429d97] dch: make --auto the default.  The current default mode of
    looking at the version in the changelog only leads to problems when people
    build up the changelog incrementally.  --auto handles this since many
    years so make this the default. There's still --since for finer control
    where to start from. (Closes: #880552, #552624)
  * [43d5587] docs: better explain dch operation (also addresses #880552)

Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release. As usual the
package is available via Debian unstable:

    https://packages.debian.org/sid/git-buildpackage

Cheers,
 -- Guido
